Error in Table

In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in Table 3 as published. The 6th line of the body of the table reported parameter estimates from an earlier, incomplete count of survivors. The corrected Table 3 appears below. The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected, as estimate d is not significantly different from 1.0, leading to the prediction of compensatory mortality. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.

Table 3. Density manipulation experiment results. The estimated parameter values for the non-linear regression (Equation (1)) are reported for each experiment, respectively. The interpretations of the results are based on the parameter d and are reported in the last column. d < 1 additive mortality; d = 1 compensation; d > 1 overcompensation. N/A indicates that confidence intervals for the associated parameter could not be estimated, usually because the solution converged to an estimate of the upper bound for the parameter (i.e., FLSuburb18-2, FLCemetery19-1, and FLCemetery19-1 experiments).
